Raise Your Hand If You Can AFFORD to Drive Your Car

Posted by Juan

Gas prices teter on almost $4 a gallon

Gas Prices
Now Don’t get mad but this picture was only taken 10 years ago in Texas.

Good Morning Nation! I know it was just last week that I was I complaining about the cost of gas. Well since that time the national average for regular has raised another 8 cents and about 15 cents in the last two weeks, according to a survey.

The average price of self-serve regular gasoline on Friday was $3.62 a gallon, up 15 cents from two weeks ago. Mid-grade was at $3.74 and premium was $3.85. That’s all according to the Lundberg Survey of 7,000 stations nationwide released Sunday. Regular gasoline is up a whopping 55 cents since 2008 began.

So where should YOU go if you want cheap gas? Well I’ll put it this way, if you live in Cheyenne, Wyo., where a gallon of regular cost $3.39, on average DON’T GO ANYWHERE! But then again whats the point of buying gas if you’re not driving. Anyway the San Francisco gets the award as having the highest average at $4.95 for regular and get this…California residents are dropping up to $4.11 a gallon on premium.

WOW!!! This is real and looks like it’s here to stay. Congress needs to get its act together and start finding some alternative means of energy or our unemployment rates will skyrocket the poverty line will raise like the flood waters of the Mississippi.
